New stretch marks AFTER losing weight?

[Swan56 6]

Okay so before you think I'm crazy - I've done some research and it IS possible. Has anyone else noticed new stretch marks after losing weight? Very frustrating! I guess I need to start buying stock in cocoa butter lol.

Why would we think you are crazy. stretch marks can be caused by rapid weight gain or rapid weight loss.

They will fade in color over time but I wouldnt waste money on coco butter there really isnt anything that helps stretch marks except time.

I haven't noticed any any new stretch marks, but I have found some new varicose veins in my legs, so either the weight was hiding them and now that some is gone I can see them, or they are just new. It makes me mad!

My old stretch marks now look like pleats. Better than the alternative though.
